I am looking for a exploded view or diagram or photo of the late style blower motor and the connections.

I have a 73 2.0. The blower motor is located on the left side of the engine bay. It have one outlet unlike the early blower with two outlests.

I have a plastic tube that I believe connects the blower to the left side "J" tube.

Problem is I have a right side "J" tube that has nothing connected to it. What feeds the right side "J" tube on the later model cars?

That squirrel cage blower would suck in cold air and introduce that into the system, which didn't really help matters any. A person should rig up something where it would at least draw in some warm air off the engine once it gets warmed up to circulate it back into the system.

If everything is in working order and not leaking more than it did from the factory, the 914 cabin heating will roast you, even in Duluth.

I just put mine back together, but I back-dated my exhaust from a '75 1.8 to a '73/74 2.0 with SSIs. The heater cables aren't quite long enough now, so both flapper boxes are partially open, the passenger side the most.

It was 55 here yesterday. I took it for a drive with the top off but the windows up, and I came back almost sweating.

My next project is to install a console. Therefore, the cables must come out, so this problem will be resolved.
